it, rubbing its neck against a tree. In the second distance,
on the right, is a cottage, at a window of which is seen a
woman. Engraved by M. * * *, and described from the print.
101. Two Oxen, a Goat, and two Sheep, distributed on the
fore-ground of a Meadow. One of the former, represented
in a side view, is lying down ruminating, the other is of a
dark colour, and stands on the farther side of the goat,
which, with the sheep, are recumbent. An old willow tree
on the right, adds to the picturesque effect of the composition.
A church and some houses are visible among a clump of
trees in the distance. Engraved by Couche, and described
from the print.
102. A Herdsman and Cattle. The view represents a
bald hilly scene with a single tree on the left. On the
fore-ground is a herdsman with a stick in his hand, driving
before him six oxen, three of which are in a line, two are
on the farther side of them, and the sixth is in advance. In
the distance is seen a waggon and horses.

103. Two Cows in a Meadow. Upon the summit of a hill,
forming the fore-ground of a meadow, is a tawny yellow cow,
standing' in a side view, with its head near the centre of the
picture; the other cow, of a mouse colour, lies on the farther
side of the hill, with its face towards the spectator. The aspect
of a clear day improves the scene.
